Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard;Transfer of Listing.

On October 5, 2020, Acasti Pharma Inc. (“Acasti”) received a notice (the “Notice”) from the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) indicating that:

• In<br>connection with Acasti’s annual and special meeting of shareholders held on September 30, 2020 (the “Meeting”),<br>Acasti did not satisfy the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5620(c) (the “Quorum Rule”) requiring Acasti to secure a quorum of<br>33 1/3% of the common shares of Acasti entitled to vote at the Meeting. The Quorum Rule began to apply to Acasti after Acasti<br>ceased to be a “foreign private issuer” under U.S. securities laws on September 30, 2019.
• Nonetheless,<br>because Acasti secured a sufficient quorum for the Meeting under its then-effective general by-law and the Business CorporationsAct (Québec), the Meeting was validly held and Acasti successfully received shareholders’ approval to amend its<br>general by-law to increase the quorum requirement for any future meeting of shareholders to 33 1/3%, as required under the Quorum<br>Rule.
--- ---
• The<br>Nasdaq has therefore determined that Acasti has now regained compliance with the Quorum Rule and closed this matter.
--- ---

The Notice has no effect on the listing of Acasti’s common shares on the Nasdaq.
